“I was at once ordered to throw my whole corps to that point and hold it at all hazards.“ Perhaps no other Union Corps commander is more invisible at Gettysburg than Major General George Sykes.

Join us as we examine the efforts of his men and analyze why the Union 5th Corps isn’t as celebrated as others are.
